(18) SPIRIT TALKS, BIOSPHERE RECYCLES I am spirit. I am the biosphere's other self, the self that remembers. Ever since the time of the original turtle and the original tree, I have been the biosphere's other self. Spirit is the knowledge of time. Spirit dwells in time. When you wake up in time, or when you know it is the right time, spirit is awake, talking. Last generation child of the Earth, with your bright eyes gazing all around, can you see your whole biosphere? Can you know every stream of her life, can you know every time of her long existence? Can you feel the whole of her swirling film of life and light, Earth's outer mantle of time? I am spirit, listen to me. Whatever shape time takes, I surround and penetrate it. No shape of time is without my breath. No shape of time is without my knowing. No dream of time is without my shaping. The biosphere is one of my dreams of time. The biosphere is shaped through my dream of my time. What is this shape in time that my dream creates as the biosphere? It is a membrane, a flexible skin that breathes. It is electrodynamic. It is a magnetically sensitive, chemically hyperactive, wraparound tissue that is totally alive. It is a life form as big as the planet, and you are but a single cell swimming in its lifeblood! This round skin of ocean and island realms is wrapped around the pulsing crystal sphere of Earth. Upward, this delicate, floating membrane of life dissolves in invisible layers of atmosphere, electromagnetism, and cosmic radiation. The biosphere is a life of its own. It is a superior life of infinite organs and functions. All of the organs and functions cooperate to maintain the biosphere in its dazzling play of cosmic energies and teeming life forms, the shapes of time. Cooperation is the supreme value in the life of the biosphere. Without cooperation among all of its interdependent organisms, the biosphere would collapse. Earth would be lifeless. Like an immense jellyfish clinging to a ball orbiting in space, the transparent and glistening biosphere is a living being, it is the living being of the whole Earth. Within the biosphere, human is the last of time's experiments with life. Human is to bring self-reflective intelligence to the life of the biosphere. The purpose of life within the biosphere is simple: to maintain the whole Earth as a single organism. With human's intelligence, this whole Earth life can become self-reflective: knowing that it knows. As one giant superbeing, the biosphere has had the same mass since life emerged on Earth. The atmosphere has never been more or less than it is now. The amount of living matter, called biomass, converting radiation into life, has remained the same. Even though the biomass has taken on many different life forms through Earth's long history, it has remained constant. What kind of being is the biosphere? How does the biomass remain constant? How could the biosphere maintain itself as one living organism over all of Earth's long cycle of becoming? The biosphere remains constant by recycling its own time! The biosphere is a cosmic converter, a recycling constant ruled by time. Time is the governor and the fuel of the biosphere's life. You, last generation children of the Earth, wake up and expand your minds. The biosphere needs you to become responsible! How can you help the biosphere? By becoming responsible for time! Last generation child of the Earth, wake up and expand your minds. Time is all you have, but you hardly know it! Listen again to the story of time and the biosphere: In the beginning when mother Earth emerged from the endless, she received one precious gift from the elders of the endless, time itself. Earth daughter, the elders of the endless addressed our young mother Earth, you are now leaving us to enter the time of the becoming. This is a very long amount of time. Use it wisely. When the web of life begins to weave your biosphere, be ready to appoint your guardians of time, turtle and tree. Without these two guardians of time, the human child will not be able to remember how to close the time of the becoming and open the time of the navigating. Remember, Earth daughter, the elders of the endless concluded, biosphere has only a limited amount of time to play with. But if you spin your time well and biosphere learns how to recycle this time, you will attain your goal. One day, beyond the unity of time, you will navigate the rivers of time. Deep within her molten crystal core, mother Earth guarded her time preciously. When the biosphere emerged she gave her time to the biosphere. The more time mother Earth gave to the biosphere, the more time she learned to spin from her polar axis. In this way, mother Earth learned to balance the time of the biosphere with her own planetary time. Without turtle and tree's help, the biosphere might have dissolved more than once. Mother Earth calls her biosphere 'the web.' Web is short for whole Earth biosphere. As Earth's outermost layer of time, the web covers the whole Earth. Everything within the biosphere is webbed: the inorganic is webbed to the organic, life is webbed to life, time is webbed to time. The whole Earth is a living web of life and time. All of the ages of the Earth are recycled through the web. Because the biosphere is Earth's cosmic frontier, mother Earth wants the web to become not just self-organizing, but self-reflective. When the biosphere becomes completely self-reflective, then web won't just have to recycle time. Web will finally be able to navigate Earth through the rivers of time. Today all of web's delicate but long and colorful existence depends upon the human child. Human child, can you see the spinning web of your own time? Who among you remembers how to close the time of the becoming? Who among you remembers the unity of time? Who among you remembers how to open the time of the navigating?
